After conceptualizing Global Resistance with Creative Director Marcus Smith, I built a full functional paper prototype and used it to refine the game over the course of three months before greenlight

The game was hugely successful with players, won marketing awards, and was nominated for a BAFTA

Global Resistance is a massive multiplayer game of risk with battles for world domination that last 7 days. It was full of features including player bases, PvP, and a strong connection to Resistance 3

Global Resistance featured an innovative unlock system connected to the console game : players unlocked exclusive Resistance 3 content (skins, titles, XP boosters) by playing Global Resistance and similarly they unlocked Global Resistance content (bombs, resources, achievements) by playing Resistance 3.
